100 IDADE
The Pampilhosa da Serra municipality has witnessed the desertification of its territory, with a marked geographical dispersion and half of its inhabitants being 60 years old or more. The “100 Idade” project aims to bring life to isolated older people, promoting mobility, but also social and cultural activities to combat isolation. The ultimate goal is to promote active ageing and give life to the community in this region.
